1

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

radius

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


2

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


3

Solve for x:
9x + 1 = \( \frac{x}{2} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{14}{17}\)
-9
-\(\frac{2}{17}\)
1\(\frac{11}{37}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

9x + 1 = \( \frac{x}{2} \)
2 x (9x + 1) = x
(2 x 9x) + (2 x 1) = x
18x + 2 = x
18x + 2 - x = 0
18x - x = -2
17x = -2
x = \( \frac{-2}{17} \)
x = -\(\frac{2}{17}\)


4

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

y-axis

origin

all of these

x-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


5

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

circumference

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
